Back Pain - Chiropractor Visit - Six Visits
A history, physical exam, assessment and treatment of back pain by a chiropractor.
A history, physical exam, assessment and treatment of back pain by a chiropractor. A chiropractor may recommend:
- Spinal manipulation and other therapies to ease symptoms and improve mobility
- Exercises to strengthen the abdomen and back muscles
- Education and training in self-care and correct posture and alignment
This care path includes the cost of 6 visits to your chiropractor.
A chiropractor may combine spinal manipulation with other treatments such as exercise, heat or cold and over-the-counter pain relievers. They may also advise you about lifestyle factors (such as posture, diet and weight control) and how they may help ease your back pain.
It is important to remember that the total cost of this care path does not include medicine, imaging studies or referrals to other healthcare providers. Those charges can add up.
If you contact your healthcare provider for evaluation of your back pain, be prepared to discuss your symptoms, how long you've had them, and if you have had them before.
- Before your appointment, make a list of your questions, concerns and symptoms; your medications (including over-the-counter); and what makes your pain better or worse.
- During your appointment, ask what might be causing the pain; when you should start to see improvement; if you should exercise or modify your activity; what the follow-up plans are; and what symptoms you should report before your next appointment.
- After your appointment, you should know your diagnosis, what tests you might need, the reason for those tests, and if the test results will change your treatment plan. You should also understand your treatment plan and any possible alternatives.
